That's amazing. I know less than nothing about gymnastics, but seeing it in slow motion the first two thoughts I had were (1) it looks like she went fifteen feet in the air, and (2) that looks a lot like Ricky Rudd's crash at Daytona in 1984.
I saw this in person. I'd say she over doubled her height. All the girls double their own height on their double passes. But, I'd estimate Simone went 2.5 times her height by just eye-balling it. She probably went 12-13 feet high.
Ladies and Gentlemen, your 6 time National Champion of Womens Gymnastics......a 4 foot 8 inch human sprite! Simone Biles.... Congratulations, Simone! And I apologize for this, no harm intended: Cry. Get mad. Smack something, curse your head off, say the C word if you must. Or forgive but not forget. Protect by speaking. You are human after all. Even if you can do unhuman things in gymnastics, you still are a human being with feelings. And it's all good. You let what you need to fly FLY!! But once this is done, there is no going back to it. Its done. put away in a trash bag at the curb, to never be acknowledged by you in A VICTIMS POINT OF VIEW! It is to be acknowledged, but as a lesson learned, clues or signs on what to look out for to prevent others from victimizing and potential victims. Take away its power of harm and turn it around to proactive & preventative measures. And you must keep the blame balanced with this proactive & preventative attitude. Or you will never overcome it fully. Be happy, for that is the way to hurt him the most aside from death itself!
I went to this competition. The girls are also a lot skinnier in person than they are on camera. The camera adds 10 pounds at least, maybe 15. I was a little concerned considering how much body shaming there is social media. And what with the camera zooming in on their butts in leotards-no woman is flattered at that angle. I couldn't believe how skinny MyKayla Skinner is. She's bordering on anorexic. Simone looks muscular and normal on camera-she's a twig in real life. The younger girls look like children. The body shaming of gymnasts is completely unwarranted. If anything, they need to gain weight.
hmmm does it mean if I joined such competition then I would be the first woman to do this? My bestfriend and I have done this several times when we were in Junior high school for fun. My mother convinced me to take part in gymnastics but I don't like it. I bet a lot of women or people have done it. It is sad that she was seen first on TV. Anyways, kudos to other performers who did not get such recognition.
@@Jayloc05 Why would I do that? I have every right to verbalize my thoughts and opinions about the said matter. If you don't like such comment then why are you here in the first place? I bet you did not even go to college that youtube is a video-sharing website in which people can convey their idea about the video.. COMMON SENSE IS NOT SO COMMON. smh
Brings tears to my eyes, it's so incredible!
Hii. Andrea
Try watching with slowest playback speed... amazing!!
Hii
Even at .25 speed I still can’t even begin to follow how crazy this is….
Absolutely stunning! Best ever!!!
Wow...Stunning. Incredible. Simone Biles Rocks! Long live the Queen of Gymnastics.
Why would anyone give this thumbs down 🤷♀️
tulum0617 because they’re just haters
That’s what I’m literally here trying to figure out
she literally made history

Never seen anything like that. How many feet off the ground did Simone reach? Incredible feat.
It was an estimated 10 foot
(according from a website)

Wow! She’s so talented. I saw her in Glasgow 2015. She’s come so far :)
Absolute perfection
Pah....I've been getting out of bed like that for years....
Haters with the thumbs down. Get a life
lmao, it's like 13 people out of over 400, why give them that much attention?
Well, you must have a problem if you dislike her gymnastics....or her.
This is a new exercise👏👏👏👏👏
WHO THE HELL THUMBS DOWN THIS!?!?!?!?
Russians...
White people
socialists thumbs down everything
People who couldn’t do a pull-up or push-up to save their life.
That’s seriously what I’m trying to figure out
Im a guy who has never watched gymnastics but i got hype as shit when she hit that
Next is a quadriple twisting double back i hope
awesome
Triple twist double back.
how high is she in the air?
moly!!!!!
This says "first woman". Have men done this move?
Yes, but even on the men’s side it’s still a rare move.

What are you referring to please?

Pshh! Is that hard or something? (Oh, 1st comment) 👍
Apparently since she's the only woman to do it....💁
Marquetta Stubblefield sorry, you missed the sarcasm.
Lupton Pittman IKR?! Like totally could do that in my sleep, tsss amateurs
I don't get all the dancing to be honest... The trick is amazing... Shouldn't that be the main point, not all this weird posing?
Women’s gymnastics is also judged on how well they flow with the music. Weird I know. But those are the rules.
She was smart to pull out the floor routine I can imagine her breaking her neck suffering from the twisties

tee song shut the fuck up
then go do it and win medals if it's so easy, and in the meantime shut the hell up.
She is the first to do it in competition. No one says she was the first ever.

@@eca1996 yes in the competition. However, the way they publicized it, it seems she was the first woman to do it ever apart from gymnastics.
Boooo
